Seeing her come in, Ah Chun immediately stood up and ran over, like a puppy meeting its owner, its invisible tail kept wagging and its eyes were bright.
"mother!"
Xu Qiuqian closed and opened her eyes: "...How many times have I told you, I am not your mother!"
Ah Chun looked determined.
"You are the mother."
Xu Qiuqian calmed down and looked at Ah Chun who looked confused, feeling very puzzled.
At the beginning, she thought it might be because Ah Chun was too scared, so she called her that. She also said that you can call her anything, but don't call her mother. After all, she doesn't have such an old son.
But Ah Chun listens to her in everything, but is very stubborn on this matter.
No matter how she corrected him, he wouldn't change.
Since he called it that, there must be a reason.
"Why do you call me mother?"
"Mother is mother." Ah Chun said with a confused look.
That expression seemed to say that he didn't know why, he just thought she was his mother.
Xu Qiuqian gave up.
Forget it, call it whatever you like.
The most important thing now is to find Mu Lingzi and take him away from here.
"Reach out."
Ah Chun obediently stretched out her hand.
Xu Qiuqian put her hand on his wrist and penetrated her spiritual energy. The demonic energy in Ah Chun's body did not decrease, but the spiritual energy increased, which showed that her method was indeed effective.
She thought for a moment.
"Do you want to stay here?"
After all, only within the space of the Hunling Jade Pendant can there be so much spiritual energy. The spiritual energy outside is thin and full of demonic energy. If Ah Chun continues to stay, it will only become more and more painful until he is completely swallowed by the demonic energy.
Ah Chun shook his head.
"Why?" Xu Qiuqian was puzzled, "Aren't you afraid of pain?"
"Help, mother." Ah Chun said word by word.
After spending this time together, Xu Qiuqian instantly understood what Ah Chun meant.
Her every move did not avoid Ah Chun. After all, Ah Chun was always under her nose. Even if he was pretending and had ulterior motives, she would be able to find out immediately.
The fact is that Ah Chun never left on her own initiative, and always stuck to her, even to the point of not leaving her.
Therefore, Ah Chun naturally knew that she was looking for someone.
Xu Qiuqian was a little moved.
Ah Chun was indeed pure. He didn't know how such a person came to the Demon Source Continent, how long he had stayed here, or why his relatives, companions or disciples didn't come to look for him.
"Aren't you afraid of pain?"
Hearing this, Ah Chun shrank down and shook his head firmly.
Of course he was afraid of pain, but he still wanted to help his mother.
"Well, since you want to go out, I will take you out."
Ah Chun suddenly became happy.
After a while, Xu Qiuqian took Ah Chun out of the jade pendant space.
"What should I do?"
Ah Chun asked Xu Qiuqian.
"Just stay with me."
She understood Ah Chun's kindness, but Ah Chun was too weak to be of much help, so she just stayed here.
"good."
Time passed by bit by bit, and soon the sky darkened, but Daozun Ziqiu still did not come back.
Xu Qiuqian wanted to bring Dao Zun Ziqiu back, but she was afraid that like last time, it happened to be a more important time, so she thought about it and let it go. Anyway, she was not in a hurry.
She asked Ah Chun to guard outside until someone came to call her tomorrow, while she entered the jade pendant space and started practicing.
Soon, the next day came.
Ah Chun didn't call her. When Xu Qiuqian came out, those people hadn't come yet. As for Ziqiu Daozun, he didn't come back either.
Xu Qiuqian thought that she would come back with Xiaolian by then.
Who knew that Jiao Han had come over, but still hadn’t come back.
"Wanyue, let me take you over to find the Shadow Demon."
Xu Qiuqian glanced behind Jiao Han. The demon slave behind him was not Xiaolian, but a demon slave with a strange face. She asked doubtfully: "Where is Xiaolian?"
"I don't know either. Where is Xiaolian?"
What followed was the demon slave behind him who asked.
"Xiao Lian went out last night and hasn't come back until now."
"What did she do out there?"
"She didn't say."
"Call her back immediately."
"But I don't know where she went."
Jiao Han's face instantly darkened, "It's useless. If that's the case, then you..."
"never mind."
Xu Qiuqian stopped her: "Since Xiaolian can't come back, then I won't take her with me. Can I take my demon slave with me?"
"Of course, Wanyue." Jiao Han's expression instantly became gentle and doting when he looked at Xu Qiuqian.
The two of them took several demon slaves to the territory of the Shadow Demon.
Two people and three demon slaves can be said to be quite simple.
You must know that the last time Li Qin took her to a banquet, he brought a large group of demon slaves with him.
I saw Jiao Han taking out a ball of demonic energy from his sleeve. The demonic energy enlarged and instantly turned into something like a sedan.
Through Ran Wanyue's memory, she learned that this object is called the Demon Shadow. It is a part of the Demon Cultivator that was cut off from her body. When entering the Demon Shadow, anyone or anything in the Demon Shadow will be controlled by the owner.
Unlike Yunzhou and Soft Cloud Bed, which were open and half-open, the Demonic Shadow was completely closed, leaving only one window to see the outside scene.
However, this window is also barred to prevent attacks from outside.
Xu Qiuqian looked at it, as if he was afraid that she would run away, so he used this specially.
She herself felt it was nothing, the demonic energy had no effect on her, but something seemed wrong with Ah Chun.
Thinking about it, the demon shadow is equivalent to them all being wrapped in a ball of demonic energy, and the level of the demonic cultivator refers to the purity of the demonic energy contained. The purity of the demonic energy contained in the Huimo is definitely not low.
But now under Jiao Han's nose, she couldn't send Ah Chun into the Hunling Jade Pendant space.
She couldn't show too much attention to Ah Chun, lest she attract Jiao Han's attention.
So she could only pretend to turn a blind eye.
But after a while, Ah Chun couldn't stand the strong demonic aura anymore, so she leaned on the edge and slowly closed her eyes.
"Wanyue, are you sure that the spirit body in the Shadow Demon's territory is what you are looking for?"
Xu Qiuqian shook his head: "I'm not sure either."
"It's okay. I will accompany you to find him slowly in the worst case. After all, he saved your life, so he is my savior." Jiao Han said softly.
If she hadn't had Ran Wanyue's memory, she might have really believed Jiao Han's lies.
She smiled at Jiao Han and thanked him.
"Why do you and I need to say thank you?"
You're addicted to acting, right?
Xu Qiuqian held back and didn't roll her eyes in front of Jiao Han.
Phantom is fast.
It took about five days to reach the territory of the Shadow Demon.
You must know that the Demon Source Continent is vast and the demons are sparse, and are concentrated near the Demon Abyss. It can be reached within five days, which is already relatively fast.
After taking down the magic shadow, Ah Chun gradually recovered some of his condition.
Xu Qiuqian had no time to care about Ah Chun and looked towards the Demon Palace ahead.
A large plaque hangs outside the palace, with the word "shadow" engraved on it. A strong demonic aura emanates from the plaque.
